Kari Kepala Ikan

2012-01-26T10:00:00.004+08:00

campak sikit halba dan biji sawi, letakkan sikit santan dan lebihkan air asam jawa, biar mendidih dan tutup... saya terlupa nak ambil gambar masa tengah dihidangkan... ialah dah masak bukan terus dimakan sebab tu saya lupa... ialah nak tunggu anak balik sekolah tengahari baru nak dihidangkan dan nak tunggu malam tunggu suami balik... memang la lupa..

bila dah naik minyak, tuang air sikit dan masukkan bendi dan terung bulat... kemudian masukkan kepala ikan

masukkan rempah kari ikan

bahan2 dan bawang2 yang telah dimayang ditumis dahulu hingga naik minyak..

masak kari kali ni saya guna periuk besar sebab kepala ikan kurau ni memang besar... ikan kurau ni dipancing dan diberi oleh adik ipar... nak menyiangnya memang seksa juga la... sampai rosak parang saya dibuatnya... panjangnya dalam 1meter suku rasanya... besar tak besar la ikan ni...

homemade spaghetti bolognese... hidangan yang amat digemari oleh anak2 dan suami... saya masak bolognese ni mesti ada cili kisar sikit supaya rasa macam malaysian style... ada pedas2.. tapi bahan2 lain semua sama seperti minced meat, bawang besar, bawang putih, sliced mushroom, tomato puree, tomato cincang, sos tomato, parmesan cheese, garam dan gula.. tak lupa mesti la ada oregano...

Bubur

2011-11-08T12:25:00.006+08:00

Bubur kosong ni untuk makan malam kami... saja buat kelainan sbb kadang2 dah tak tahu nak masak apa... pulak tu suami saya terasa nak makan kangkung goreng belacan... jadi saya rasa best ni kalau buat bubur kosong simple mcm ni dan dgn lauk2 simple... terasa mcm makan kat kedai je...

selain kangkung, saya juga sertakan telur masin, ikan kering bulu ayam yg ditambah cili, bawang besar dan limau kasturi, saya juga sertakan sekali lauk ikan bilis goreng dgn cili hijau dan air asam... tak lupa juga saya taburkan diatas bubur lobak asin yg telah ditumis kering dgn cili padi dan bawang besar.... mmg terangkat!

Ikan Pekasam

2011-11-08T12:10:00.003+08:00

mmg sedap sgt la kalau ikan pekasam ni disertakan dgn lauk yg simple sekali iaitu telor goreng dgn sayur kacang panjang bercampur tempe dan soo hoon...

goreng ikan dahulu kemudian tumis bawang besar yg telah didadu dgn cili padi dan cili kering.. perahkan limau kasturi... hmmm mmg sedap kalau makan dgn nasi panas...

limau kasturi ni pun saya petik di homestay di situ.. tuan rumah benarkan kami ambil sbb buahnya mmg banyak... terimakasih...

Ikan wadik pekasam dibeli dari sekinchan semasa kami tidur semalam disalah satu homestay disana... saya memang suka ikan pekasam ni... jadi saya pun beli la 3bungkus terus untuk buat stok... jadi kalau boring2 nak masak ikan pekasam ni la penyelamatnya..

No lah.. Actually, I wanted to but the cartoon character like Mc Queen Car.. (Fahmi loves this car very much... always excited when he sees this character displayed in the shop... from the magazines to stickers, videos, hard cover story books, the car model from small into the big one... and all about it...) ...but unluckily there's no stock at the bakery shop, so.. my husband just simply asked me to buy the Man-U one... that's all about the story.. hehe..

simple menus for the kids and teachers... chicken drumets, chicken nuggets, frankfurters, chinese style fried mee hoon, egg mayo sandwiches, lychee drinks...

goodies for boys.. Mc Queen Car plastic bag

goodies for girls... Princess plastic bag..

Jus Alpukat

2011-05-20T19:16:00.012+08:00

My friend introduced this jus alpukat during our visit to Jakarta, Tanah Abang somewhere in Feb this year... I never knew this kind of juice before until she asked me to taste it... Wah! Memang sedap sungguhlah... then, after going back to Malaysia, I asked my bibik about it, she knew very well and even knew how to make this juice... cantik ah tu! First time trial was failed then this was my 2nd trial and for me it's successful... maybe buah avocado ni mesti di import dari indon jugak kot, baru jadik.. hehe... Anyway, my friend had tasted it and satisfied with the taste.. Hope she will make it one as this juice is very easy & simple to prepare... and furthermore she loves this jus alpukat very very much...avocado imported from Indonesia (my bibik brought them back to Malaysia during her 1-month balik kampung time) peel off
the ingredients
blending process of avocado, 1/4 spoon of coffee paste, ice cube, sugar, water & milk
final touch, pour chocolate milk onto the wall of the glass (chocolate milk - from indon too)

Banana Cake

2010-10-29T20:05:00.007+08:00

The raw material, bunch of bananas had been given by my neighbour few months ago... after kept it for few days and started to think that I should try the new recipes for these bananas this time around instead of something making so common like banana fritters...

Without wasting time, I took several recipe books and searched for the best one, and finally found that the Chef Anuar's recipe book would be the best banana cake recipe that I should try with....

I bought some ingredients listed in the recipe that was not in my stock at the nearby bakery shop... and then started to bake this cake with careful and patient, followed each step given until to the final baking process... and finally I found that the result was impressed me a lot. I even could not imagine that this first trial banana cake that I baked looked so beautiful, perfect and delicious... fluffy, soft and sweet? it was just nice....

LAKSA JOHOR

2010-05-28T12:12:00.021+08:00

LAKSA JOHOR. Cara yang paling asli saya buat untuk menghasilkan Laksa Johor yang sebenar dan mengikut resepi arwah mak... Inilah janji saya utk meneruskan resepi warisan ini dari ditelan zaman...

Saya telah cuba beberapa kali dan akhirnya saya dapat juga menghasilkan kuah laksa johor ni walaupun pada hemat saya masih byk lagi kekurangan.. tapi rasanya tak la lari sgt... walaupun yg makan rata-rata memuji tapi yg pasti saya masih tidak berpuas hati.. insyaallah saya akan cuba dan mencuba lagi sampai saya rasa kuahnya betul2 tiada tolok bandingan spt kuah laksa johor yg dibuat dari air tangan arwah mak...

Laksa johor memang membuatkan saya terkenangkan arwah mak... ialah specialty arwah... bau kuahnya hmmm jgn ckp la.. 1 rumah berbau semerbak.. bau aje mmg kecoh air liur dibuatnya... belum lagi part makannya... amat menyelerakan.. makan semestinya menggunakan original 'fork&spoon'... baru la pure johorean.. nak tahu... anak saudara saya suka makan laksa johor ni dgn kicap sejak kecil.. hehehe... mcm pelikkan.. tapi sedap juga rupanya!!... Dah jadi doktor dah dia skrg... skrg ni anak2 saya pulak yg mengikut jejak langkahnya..., kdg2 saya pun curah jugak kicap... hehe boleh gitu??

LAKSA JOHOR ni menjadi hidangan rasmi kami ketika hari raya aidil fitri sejak kami kecil lagi.... tapi kini tidak lagi.... itu yang membuatkan saya rindu dengan masakan arwah... esp. laksa johor ni... dan bukan setakat laksa johor je.. malah semua masakan johor yang arwah buat semuanya saya rindu... masakannya akan sentiasa terpahat dihati saya sampai bila2... semuanya hebat2 dan sedap2 belaka!...

LAKSA JOHOR - penyediaan hidangan :-

Kuah laksa johor - daun selasih sebagai hiasan

Spaghetti yang dibentuk mcm no. 8 ni dipanggil 'cap'... 1cap, 2cap, 3cap...

Hiasan - bawang dihiris halus (guna sagat), hirisan timun, toge (dibuang ekornya)

Hirisan halus timun untuk hiasan.

Ni la cara sebenar hirisan timun untuk laksa johor. Memang agak remeh la... tapi ni la yang menjadi specialty dan keistimewaan laksa johor berbanding dgn laksa2 lain.. Lagi satu, kebanyakan laksa johor yang pernah saya lihat dan makan, timunnya dihiris macam laksa penang, panjang2... memang lain-lah!

Hiasan lain - limau kasturi (dibuang bijinya), lobak merah asin dicincang halus, sambal belacan, hirisan daun kesum & daun selasih

Daun selasih ni saya petik jek dibelakang rumah. Memang saya tanam purposely utk laksa johor ni. Susah nak dapat daun selasih ni... lagipun ramai tak appreciate daun ni dan tak tahu daun ni digunakan untuk masakan apa....

SET LAKSA JOHOR

SET LAKSA JOHOR - untuk di jual...

mengandungi:

2cap spaghetti

kuah laksa

hiasan : hirisan timun, toge, hirisan bawang besar, limau kasturi, lobak merah asin dicincang, hirisan daun kesum & daun selasih, sambal belacan

lobak asin & daun2 ditabur diatas spaghetti. sambal belacan & limau kasturi diletakkan ditepinya.

toge, hirisan timun & bawang di bubuh di dalam 2 compartment berbeza

kuah laksa johor di bekas yang lain.

Sedia untuk penghantaran.

Chocolate Sponge Cake with Blueberry 2 Cafe

2010-01-21T21:16:00.003+08:00

No Chocolate Ganache Cake or we called it Chocolate Ice-Cream Cake this time around... (eventhough students always ask & look for it every week)...

I don't know why I don't supply to cafe for quite sometimes.. hehe.. hmmm... i think la kan... there's no other reasons other than of my laziness... hmm malasss betul laa nak buat ice-cream tu... a bit tedious.. so I come out with this simple cake...Chocolate Sponge Cake layered with blueberry & top with cream & croquant. That's it! Alhamdulillah still SOLD OUT!!

Bread Pudding 2 Cafe

2010-01-21T17:57:00.011+08:00

Requested by Eta to sell @ her cafe... easy to make... yet delicious esp. to those who love sweet dessert...

For this recipe, I don't include vanilla sauce together... afraid students have to pay extra cost for it... bread pudding alone for me should be enough...

Anyway the recipe is actually a bit expensive esp. when involve with fresh milk, butter & raisins... So how much do u think the price is?? tak mahal-lah... the price is very reasonable..

Baked Macaroni Potatoes Cheese 2 Cafe

2010-01-21T17:20:00.007+08:00

Try my luck and see the demand on how far my Baked Macaroni Potatoes Cheese can go @ Eta's Cafe... and so lucky the 1st attempt was successful when the following week they actually looking forward excitedly...

I baked this macaroni potatoes cheese in the round aluminium tin of the size - bottom diameter: ~3 1/4in & top diameter: ~4 1/4in & height: ~1.5in, then delivered to her hot & fresh once a week only without miss...

Well, evethough I know, this menu is like a 'goreng pisang panas'.. I don't feel to make it every day or alternately due to 3 reasons: 1. to avoid people get bored easily with this new product 2. got other committment, ye ke?? 3. malasssss.... heehee...

Baked Macaroni Potatoes Cheese

2010-01-03T15:31:00.006+08:00

The fried cheesy and creamy macaroni with the mixture of mixed veges, button mushrooms and diced chicken was first placed in the aluminium trays of 2 sizes of 8x5.5x1.5in (big) & 8x3x1.5in (small).

Then it was layered evenly with buttered mashed potatoes on top and sprinkled over with mozarella cheese before baking...

Baked about 30min @ 180oC until golden brown... let it cold at room temperature and covered with transparent lid finally..

Done! Just waiting for my sis in law's husband to pick up @ 10 o'clock for her kids birthday party which started @ 12 o'clock, 26th Dec 2009.

Fuhh.. really a tiring task for me, but overall I was happy with the end results when everybody satisfied with the taste... so perfect and delicious!!

Thanks Misah for the order! Wishing a Happy Birthday to Qaseh & Hafiq, they are now 2 & 1 years old... Enjoy!

Cakes Of The Day @ Eta's Cafe

2009-07-08T21:12:00.009+08:00

Chilled blueberry cheesecake this time around to send to the cafe! The type of cheesecakes are always prepared alternately to make it different every week. Sometimes I baked it in plain & sometimes layered with cappucino and this was the first time I tried to make the chilled one.

As usual, chocolate ganache cake is a must as the demand is high by the students, and even they look forward every week to taste my choc. cake. Sorry guys, I only can commit to produce these two products at the meantime. Hope one day, I will put more and more products esp. on pastries and italian foods; pizza, pastas..& etc, etc..

{Blueberry Cheesecake Delivery}

2009-07-08T20:33:00.004+08:00

Coincidentally, when I firstly came to the computer shoplot at one of the famous shopping complex nearby my house to buy the printer cartridge and need some services on my printer, the owner of the shop wanted to order the blueberry cheesecake from me. This was happen when I told her that I just finished baking cakes to my friend's cafe.. and she asked me to make one for her when I'm free... "Are you serious to buy cake from me, Ms. Foong"?? Yes, I'm serious....

But sorry Ms. Foong, I really made one for u but only came back to you after 2weeks of making your order! Hehe, the funny thing was, instead of me paying her for the services, she actually paid me for the cheesecake... and u know what her services actually was FOC.... small matter only maaa!! Thanks Ms. Foong for the order and for the FOC services...

{Cheese Cake Delivery}

2009-05-22T12:11:00.010+08:00

Kari Ayam

2009-05-21T11:17:00.005+08:00

Not so keen on cooking chicken curry because always not within my expectation... eventhough the taste wasn't bad at all, I prefer better than this as the taste of my mother in-law and my sis mother in law's chicken curry... I should check and look into details from them the exact amount of all the ingredients in the recipe like onion, garlic, ginger, spices, curry powder, curry leaves, etc... so that I can improve its taste and atleast satisfy my tastebud!

{Choc. Cake Delivery}

2009-05-20T08:31:00.008+08:00

Cake had been cut into small slices before delivery to my husband's colleague, Selvi. This was the special request made by her so that when come to 'makan' time her children could easily pick and take out one slice at a time... so no messy and dirty wherever around the place. That's a good idea! I admit that, normally mom's having difficulty to handle and control their kids everytime cake is with them, seems that kids are so excited most of the time and cake could be touched before time... whatever-lah... afterall they're all just kids and yet they're so so cute when doing all that havoc!! hehe..

Thanks Selvi for the order! Hope your family esp. your kids really enjoy with the cake! and I personally hope by cutting it, it could ease your job when come to cleaning part.... that's the toughest part anyway esp. involve with whole chocolate...

Cakes To My Friend's Cafe

2009-05-14T12:45:00.008+08:00

Part of my products to sell at my friend's cafe besides chicken pie, muffin and pizzas... These chocolate ganache cake (layered by homemade ice-cream) and cheese cake was cut into small pieces into cubic size and place on the paper cup... keep in the display counter chiller for about 0-4oC at my friend's cafe.

This is my new commitment now to supply to her every week... my first trial was successful.. not bad! and even some customers asked more cakes from her.... and she asked me to bring more cakes next week esp. cheese cake... that's sounds good! next week I'll come back to her with these cakes together with other products too... Thanks Eta for allowing me to test market on all my homemade products... I'm really love with my new task...

Baked Meat Ball Cheese With Veges

2009-05-14T12:20:00.004+08:00

Woow so delicious! cheezy and creamy recipe... the cheesy meat ball with veges menu for my family's weekend lunch! As usual, my kids love it very much and my husband hmm, he only touched few because he said he is now on diet! Ye la tu... Boleh percaya kaa...

This meat ball is made from the pure beef and no other ingredients in it except some spices for its original aroma. I first bought it after tasted it during the MIHAS exhibition held at MARTRADE @ Jln Duta last week days with my friend, Zana. We bought so many HALAL products on sale and carried heavily along the way with full hands from one hall to another... and we actually forgot and perhaps don't bother that our car was parked quite far away from the exhibition centre... hehe... biasalah tu orang pompuan... shopping sakan..

Mini Creme Caramel

2009-05-14T11:20:00.011+08:00

Bought the mini and round aluminium baking moulds purposedly for the creme caramel eventhough it's quite expensive to spend especially for the fulltime housewife like me... ...and I'm not so sure whether it's worth buying or not unless I use for my home-business purposes... hopefully..

My intention is just to make my creme caramel looks different everytime I make one in terms of its shape and appearance... eventhough finally I spoilt most of them because I failed to turn and seperate out nicely and finely the creme caramel from its mould... so difficultlah... macamana ni chef!

{Frozen Mini Pizza}

2009-04-25T22:41:00.010+08:00

At last I'd made it. The frozen mini pizzas for my ex-colleague who most of the time mentioned the same thing everytime she's watching my pizzas in my blog "bila la akak nak buatkan pizza untuk saya ni..." hehe... sorry la Gee.... sorry too for the late delivery, I hope u don't mind...

I admit, that I'm not so serious in my home business.. that's why I keep on delaying and giving excuses on the orders made by customers... and even I know I shouldn't do that no matter what...but.. but... but... still wanna create reasons huh!... hehe.. whatever-lah... and now I hope it won't happen again this time as I'm so 'free' to do that all on time!! Hope so...heh.

{Baked Macaroni Cheese with Potatoes}

2009-04-05T22:45:00.010+08:00

Special ordered by my sis-in-law. She wanted something like shepherd's pie but a little bit different, the base to change to macaroni cheese...

She wanted to cover the bottom layer with mashed potatoes and sprinkle with mozzarella and parmesan cheese.

Baked! The one that looked golden brown was the mozarella cheese...

To avoid heat release while delivery cover the product with aluminium foil tightly.

Baked Macaroni Cheese

2009-04-05T22:05:00.011+08:00

Searched for different type of recipes this time around and found this recipe could suit my close friend's tastebuds.... eventhough actually it was not, hehe....

Hope she really enjoyed all the foods and every moment we spent together, chatting and laughing about the good old days and everything about us and our families.... almost 18years we actually didn't see each other and we were so lucky finally the facebook brought us together in the cyber world and our very own life... Thanks Zetty for visiting me... hope our friendship will last forever...

The Process of Making Pizza

2009-02-23T14:36:00.030+08:00

First, mix thoroughly all dry ingredients including dry yeast in the mixer. Then, mix on medium speed until most of the flour and water have mixed.. Let it rise for at least an hour and about the double size, then punch to release air.

Next, use a rolling pin until the dough is about 1/4" thick. Use fork to punch or special tool to roll over the dough to make holes. This process is used just to release air while baking. Bake the pizza dough/base for about 20-25mins until cook.

Spread over the pizza sauce, cheese and the favorite toppings of your choice on top of the cooked pizza base, sprinkle back with mozarella cheese before baking. Bake again for only 5-10 minutes just to let the cheese melt and look a little bit brown..

and it's now ready to eat... Lastly, just cut the pizza into slices and serve them hot!

The Making of Chicken Pie

2009-02-23T14:24:00.011+08:00

The main ingredients for the filling are like boneless chicken breast, cut into small pieces, diced potatoes, canned button mushrooms and mixed veges, etc... cook them together and put aside.. this recipe really gives you a tasty filling pie and wonderful taste ever... so creamy and mushy all the time...

Just fill the filling into the shell and cover with top of the pie with a sheet of puff pastry. Trim the sides nicely and moisten the edges with egg, press firmly with fork around the edges to prevent the pastry from separating while baking. Lastly, brush the top of puff pastry evenly with beaten egg. Then, bake for about 25-30 minutes or until the pastry has risen for few layers, look crispy and is golden brown.

{Chicken Pie Delivery}

2009-01-20T23:10:00.008+08:00

{Biskut Arab Delivery}

2009-01-13T09:53:00.004+08:00

Awaiting for so long for my biskut arab. Pity her...My neighbour had ordered this cookies since the last Hari Raya Aidil Fitri..... and only last weekend I managed to make for her... frankly speaking, I've got so many reasons and excuses for not making this on time...

Anyway, I've told her earlier that I really don't have time for all this... so many things to do over the weekend... and so lazy and tired to make during the weekdays... anyway, I'm a working mother. She understand that and said, "do when I'm free....". Ok-lah kalau gitu! here I really had my own sweet time to make one for her... hehe... I'm so sorry Ani for waiting this 200pc-biskut arab for so long...!

Kari Kepala Ikan

2009-01-07T08:56:00.010+08:00

Kari kepala ikan jenahak! Wow!! I couldn't imagine that the taste was really fantastic and so delicious this time around.... the curry gravy was so perfect like the Kedai Mamak's one!

Last time I was using the red snapper head for this curry as normally found at Kedai Mamak... since I couldn't find this fish, I think why don't try with kepala ikan jenahak instead...

I would say between these two, the taste even better-lah when you cook with kepala ikan merah.... the flesh more sweeter and tender... I should try again next time-lah! You know, my husband really love and adore this Mamak's Style Curry Recipe.... and to my surprise, my 4 yo boy love it too even it's hot n spicy! Betul-betul kaw!!

Birthday Cake

2008-12-30T11:38:00.004+08:00

My husband's niece 1-year-old birthday! Apart from this choc. cake, my sis-in-laws ordered few recipes from me... cheese cake, tiramisu and shepherd's pie... and in fact, I made extra for them.. my first trial walnut brownies... Unluckily, forgot to take pics. for all that!

Thanks for the orders Misah and Kak Long!!... Hope you all enjoy the cakes and pies. Your prices of course the very extra special one! Harga adik-beradik, hehe! Happy Birthday Qaseh!

Blueberry Cheese Cake

2008-12-18T08:15:00.016+08:00

No need to bake at all! Easy job yet so delicious... hey, I like it very much-lah and prefer this than the baked one!.... By right, the base should be the vanilla sponge cake, but I just use the left over choc. sponge cake that I made last time for choc. ganache cake...

I crushed and mashed them together and pressed on the bottom of the springform pan... put aside and the best is to keep refrigerate for a while....

Whipping cream, castor sugar, cheese and halal gelatine would be the main ingredients for preparing cream cheese batter... once all are ready mix, pour the batter on top of the cake base in the springform pan and keep refrigerate for about 5 hours until cream cheese become solid.....

Take out the cake from the pan and it's now ready to eat! But wait! Wait for the final touch... spread over the blueberry filling on top of the cake and just use the icing cream to decor it, just make it round and round, cover the whole cake at the tip and side of it... just like that! haha...

Hari Raya Special Treats

2008-11-29T01:00:00.005+08:00

My small hari raya open house for my husband's families.... they were very keen to come and visit my house and of course to enjoy my homemade foods... and as usual they prefer western foods coz couldn't find anywhere else during open house.... oklah... as u wish... my special treats to them...

Menus served were such as shepherd's pies, chicken BBQ, pastas, desserts and fresh salads... everything was prepared early in the morning and ready on time for the dinner...

For preparing chicken BBQ... I don't have problem as I have done it so many times before..both in small and large scale.. for this one, I have changed the ingredient a bit using rosemary herbs to experience the real western...

and after 2 hrs of smoky moment with my sister in law at my back yard..chicken BBQ were ready to be enjoyed...

For desserts... what else if without corn pudding castard... that's my specialties! and one of the favourite among the families... served with gravy and cocktails..

The main courses for the party would not be complete without pastas... well beside shepherd's pie I decided to cook fried macaroni and spaghetti carbonara too for variety.. pssstt! afraid not enough....kuat makan diorang ni... hehe...

hmm, fried minced meat-macaroni without mixed veges... had pushed my husband to find everywhere in the market nearby...but still couldn't find one.... I'm a bit perfectionist esp. when serving foods to guests... but what to do.... luckily the taste was perfect..

fresh salads served among others.... just to balance the diet...hehee... I'm sure they will touch it the last and very less.... sorry no thousand island and salad sauce...

So finally..everything was ready and looked just perfect and presentable on my dining table.. just waiting for the 2 cars and a van to arrive from Keramat to finish them all.... have fun!
